A loan helped to buy organic fertilizer.


Yanet Maritza's story

Yanet, 33, is married, and her husband is a farmer. They have 3 children aged 15, 11, and 6 who all attend school. Yanet is a hardworking person who is enthusiastic and enterprising. She dreams of increasing her household income and being able to help her family.

This loan will help Yanet to buy organic fertilizer to increase her production on the land where she grows tara (a tree native to this area whose seeds are used to dye fabrics, tan leather, and make medicines.)

After 10 years in this business, what Yanet likes most is to invest in the business so that she can get a greater harvest and sell her products in an organized manner. Her challenge is to increase the productivity of her forest of tara trees so that she can contribute toward improving her family's quality of life.
